Philadelphia Inquirer by Jonathan Storm

A surprisingly effective personal drama.

Wall Street Journal by Dorothy Rabinowitz

This is suspense that goes well beyond that of most medical shows.

New York Post by Adam Buckman

A mushy, messy, medical melodrama that's pretty much identical to a dozen other doctor dramas you've seen many times before.

The New York Times by Ginia Bellafante

Hollander... has pared the medical drama down to its barest notions of life and death and sliced away the acronyms, arguably just when they needed some cutting.

The Hollywood Reporter by Barry Garron

The characters connect mostly on a clinical level, rarely deeper.

Pittsburgh Post-Gazette by Rob Owen

A pedestrian medical drama that sparks to life near the end of the pilot.
